Would you like a little horsing around with your gin and tonic? This Fredrick Weinberg Horse Shaped Drink Trolley ($950) will definitely add some eccentricity to your home bar.

For this challenge, I'd like you to tell me how you'd use this cart in your home. Would you up its kitsch factor with more equine-themed accents? Would you repaint it? What room would it look best in? Would it work for a children's playroom? What would you store on it? Tell me in the comments below!

Trend Alert: Equestrian Accents

CasaSugar — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 15:01:55 -0800

I think many of us may have had horsey obsessions growing up. I, for one, was hooked on Elizabeth Taylor in her role as Velvet Brown in the fabulous '40s film National Velvet. The good news is, we don't have to give up the horse love just because we've grown up. In fact, the design world has been inundated with equestrian-inspired accents and décor.

Lately, I've been seeing equestrian accents popping up on everything, from snaffle bit-enhanced purses to horsehead lamps. Check out my favorite home picks for this trend.

Deck the Haus: Patchwork Ornament Ponies

These adorable little calico-coated ponies ($12) from Anthropologie would've been a shoo-in for my Equestrian Accents Trend Alert. They'll look great amongst your more traditional Santa and angel ornaments, and add a kick of folksy kitsch to your decorating scheme. Each pony is blue on one side and pink on the opposite for maximum ornament fun.

What do you think, would you pony up for these ornaments?
